- Eric Laub:
- Thank you operator. This is Eric Laub, Vice President of Investor Relations at Jounce Therapeutics. Good morning, and welcome to the Jounce Therapeutics first quarter 2022 financial results conference call. This morning, we issued a press release, which outlines the topics that we plan to discuss today. The release is available in the investors and media section of our website at www.jouncetx.com. Speaking on today's call will be our CEO and President, Dr Richard Murray, who will reveal our pipeline progress and key milestones followed by our CMO, Dr Beth Trehu, who will provide an update on our clinical activities. And lastly, our CFO, Kim Drapkin, will reveal our first quarter financial results. We will then open the call for your questions. Before we begin, I would like to remind everyone that today's discussion will include statements about our future expectations, plans, and prospects that constitute forward looking statements. For the purposes of the Safe harbor Provisions under the private securities litigation reform act of 1995. Actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these looking statements as a result of various important factors, including the risk factors discussed in our SEC filings. In addition, any forward looking statements represent our views only as of today, May 5th 2022, and should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date. While we may elect to update these forward looking statements at some point in the future, we specifically disclaim any obligation to do so, even if our views change. With that, I'll now turn the call over to Rich.
- Richard Murray:
- Thanks Eric. Good morning. And thank you for joining today. Before I turn to our pipeline in quarterly accomplishments, let me take a moment to recognize the entire Jounce team on their continued commitment to excellence and dedication to improving patients' lives, which they bring to work. Every day. We were pleased to announce this morning in our press release that we met the initial pre-specified response criteria to continue expansion of 2 of the INNATE study cohorts to 29 patients. We are encouraged by this progress and continue to execute across all cohorts. Beth will provide more detail on the INNATE study in a few moments. While the use of PD-1 inhibitors continues to grow and expand into earlier lives of therapy, including non-metastatic settings, the size and scope of PD-1 inhibitor resistant markets continues to grow as there are more patients who are resistant to the therapy than benefit from it. Unfortunately, there are few alternatives for these patients and many tumor settings. We see this resistance as a fundamental scientific and medical problem that stands in the way of the broader and more durable impact IO could have for cancer patients. As scientific evidence continues to point to the myeloid immune cell lineage as being cargo to at least some aspects of IO resistance. We undertook a comprehensive target discovery interrogation of the myeloid cells from human tumors. Our discovery work prioritized the low RB or ILT family of receptors as being key mechanisms that could mediate such immunosuppression leading to IO resistance. These mechanisms could occur in certain patients independent of any T-cell focused immunosuppression, such as PD-1 or CQ-A4. There are 5 LILRB, inhibitory receptors, and 6 LILRA activating receptors. From this work we prioritize LILRB2(ILT4) or LILRB4(ILT3). Now an IND enabling studies and LILRB1(ILT2) in discovery. Each of these programs has common as well as unique features of biology and the mechanisms by which they may lead to therapeutic benefit. Our highest priority program JTX-8064 blocks the function of LILRB2 on tumor associated macrophages and other myeloid cells in aims to convert immunosuppressive activities of these cells to an immune active state. First by inhibiting ligand binding to LILRB2, the immunosuppressive macrophages can be reprogrammed, which we believe favors in immune response in tumor. Second, we believe the mechanism also allows for more effective antigen presentation leading to T-cell activation, thus creating a bridge between innate and adaptive immune systems. This is something TSOL checkpoint inhibitors cannot do alone, and the preclinical data tells us it may result in the potential to reverse PD-1 inhibitor resistance. We are extremely pleased with the progress of the INNATE study, as we try to bring benefit to the patients that historically have not benefited from or become resistant to PD-1 inhibitors. I will now turn to SELECT, a randomized Phase II proof of concept trial of vopratelimab or Vopra in combination with our PD-1 inhibitor Pimi in non-small cell lung cancer. We have completed the TISvopra biomarker screening and expect to complete enrollment this month. As we reiterate our guidance of expecting to share full clinical trial data at a medical meeting in the second half of this year. Our next potential clinical program JTX-1484 is an anti LILRB4(or ILT3) program currently in IND enabling studies. LILRB4 is expressed on immune suppressive myeloid cells in the tumor microenvironment with both overlapping and distinct cell types in biology compared to LILRB2. We look forward to advancing this program to the clinic. Led by the LILRB family, as well as additional myeloid target mechanisms, our discovery teams are actively building rationally designed biospecific antibodies where our goal is to identify development candidates that have activities superior to that of the combinations of individual antibodies. We're excited for what lies ahead at Jounce as we work toward our key data readouts this year. Our strong financial position enables our continued growth and execution beyond the proof of concept inflection points of INNATE and SELECT while continuing our robust novel discovery efforts, identifying and progressing new mechanisms to benefit cancer patients, particularly in the settings where patients have few therapeutic options. With that, I'll turn the call over to Beth to discuss our clinical pipeline in science in more detail.
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Thanks Rich. We are making great progress on our 2 proof of concept studies, and I'm very pleased to be able to provide some updates on both studies for you this morning. Let's start with the INNATE trial of JTX-8064, our LILRB2 inhibitor. Last year, we completed the phase one dose escalation for both monotherapy and combination with pimi selected 700 milligrams as the recommended phase 2 dose and initiated the phase 2 expansion cohorts for both monotherapy and combination treatment in 7 different indications. Enrollment is going very well. And as Rich mentioned, we are delighted to report that 2 combination cohorts have met the response criteria to expand to 29 patients and are actively enrolling. For competitive reasons, we are not disclosing which indications have expanded at this time, both JTX-8064 alone and in combination with pimi continue to be well tolerated. As a reminder, each of the expansion cohorts is Simon 2-stage design for the combination cohorts. The first stage consists of 10 patients per cohort. Each cohort must meet pre-specified criteria based on radiographic response before resuming enrollment of the additional 19 patients for a total of 29 per combination cohort. Our goal is to demonstrate proof of concept in the full set of 29 patients, which requires that the response rate of JTX-8064 in combination with a PD-1 inhibitor is greater than what would be expected with a PD-1 inhibitor alone. The response rates for PD-1 inhibitor monotherapy are different for each INNATE indication and are all quite low, generally in the single digits. This reflects the high unmet need in patients who have failed PD-1 inhibitor therapy or have tumor types where PD-1 inhibitors alone have minimal impact. True to our focus on the interrogation of the tumor microenvironment, the tumor types being investigated in INNATE were chosen because they are expected to have a high percentage of immunosuppressive macrophages, have a high unmet need and provide opportunities across 3 major groups of patients. As we have previously stated, we are studying 3 distinct patient populations across the 7 indications in the INNATE study. PD-1 inhibitor naive patients who have tumors for which there are approved PD-1 or PDL-1 inhibitors. PDL-1 inhibitor naive patients who have tumors for which there are no PD-1 or PDL-1 inhibitors approved, and patients who have failed a PD-1 inhibitor therapy, and whose tumors are PD-1 inhibitor resistant. We have included all 3 groups of patients in our expansion cohorts to determine the best opportunities for JTX-8064 to make a difference for patients with cancer. An important aspect of the trial is evaluation of the correlation of pharmacodynamic and predictive biomarkers with efficacy, which will be done later this year. We are very pleased at the pace of enrollment in INNATE, and we expect to present data on all 31 Phase I dose escalation patients, 9 of whom were in combination and at least 60 Phase II patients from INNATE at a medical meeting in the second half of 2022. This data will include complete phase one monotherapy and combination dose escalation data, including the respective safety PK/PD biomarker and preliminary efficacy data. Phase II data will include safety, preliminary efficacy based on at least 2 response assessments per patient pharmacodynamics and potential predictive biomarker correlation with efficacy. We believe that this predictive biomarker analysis will be useful in interpretation of the clinical data later this year. There is a growing body of evidence that biomarkers expressed by immunosuppressive macrophages are a negative prognostic factor in many cancers, regardless of treatment. And that high levels of LILRB2 relative to interferon gamma are a negative predictor of response to PD-1 inhibitors. If we observe an association of improved clinical outcomes with biomarkers, typically linked to worse outcomes, particularly in the combination cohorts, we will have greater confidence in the contribution of JTX-8064 to clinical efficacy. Now onto our other Phase II program Vopratelimab and the SELECT trial are randomized Phase II proof of concept trial of Vopra are ICOs agonist. SELECT had a target enrollment of 75 patients to achieve 60 available patients. We stopped patient screening when we met our goal of 60 available patients and expect to complete enrollment in the next few weeks. Therefore we are on track to present the complete study data in the second half of 2022 at a medical meeting. In SELECT studying 2 doses of Vopra in combination with Pimi compared to Pimi alone in biomarker selected patients with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer, who are PD-1 inhibitor naive and have progressed on a platinum based chemotherapy regimen. This trial seeks to address 2 important questions. One, will Vopra plus a PD-1 inhibitor in biomarker selected patients result in greater activity than a PD-1 inhibitor alone, and 2, which dose of Vopra should we choose for further development. The predictive biomarker selection of patients utilizes TISvopra, an RNA based 18 gene signature, that includes genes relevant to both PD-1 and ICOS biology. Only patients with a value above the biomarker threshold are enrolled and the trial is designed to show the statistical superiority of Vpora plus our PD-1 inhibitor Pimi versus Pimi alone. The primary endpoint is the mean change from baseline in tumor size averaged over 9 and 18 weeks. And the secondary end points are overall resist response rate, progression free survival, overall survival and duration of response, which represent all of the standard regulatory endpoint. We will assess the data and determine next steps by analyzing both the primary and the more familiar secondary endpoints, the doses we are exploring 0.1 and 0.03 were selected based on differentiated patterns of positile target engagement demonstrated in prior studies, and based on a hypothesis that the sustained target engagement required for antagonist antibodies is not ideal for an agonist molecule like Vpora. We expect to choose a dose for further clinical development Vopra based on the results of SELECT and a positive result in select may lead to biomarker directed development in multiple potential tumor types. Lastly, I'd like to discuss our SELECT study patients in Ukraine, thanks to the incredible efforts of our team and the inspirational fortitude of the Ukrainian patients and study site personnel. I am very happy to report that all of the ongoing Ukrainian patients are continuing to receive study treatments and assessments. Every site in Ukraine has enough study drug to last through the end of this year. And some patients have moved to study sites in other countries. Our thoughts are with the patients, their families, and those who provide their care as they continue to navigate this tragic situation. We will continue to monitor the situation very closely. In conclusion, I would like to take a moment to thank our valued investigators. And most importantly, the patients who put their trust in our medicines to make a difference in their lives. I would also like to thank our team at Jounce and their dedication to advancing these critical programs. We look forward to reporting on our continued progress this year. I will now turn the call over to Kim.
- Kimberlee Drapkin:
- Thank you, Beth. As we reported in this morning's press release cash, cash equivalent and investments, as of March 31st 2022, we are $186.4 million compared to $220.2 million as of December 31st, 2021. The decrease was due to cash burn from operating expenses incurred during the period. Turning to the P&L, no revenue was recognized during the first quarter of 2022, compared to $1.5 million of revenue recognized during the first quarter of 2021. The 2021 revenue was comprised solely of non-cash revenue related to the performance of research and transition services under the Gilead license agreement. During the first quarter of 2022, we incurred $30.1 million in research and development expenses compared to $20.5 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in R&D expenses was due to increased manufacturing activities performed and increased clinical and regulatory expenses for INNATE, an increased payroll in stock based compensation expense. General and administrative expenses were $7.3 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to $7.6 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease in G&A expenses was primarily a result of decreased external consulting and stock based compensation expense. Net loss for the first quarter of 2022 was $37.4 million resulting in a basic and diluted net loss per share of 72 cents as compared to a net loss of $26.5 million for the same period in 2021 resulting in a basic and diluted net loss per share of 58 cents. The increase in net loss is attributable to increased operating expenses incurred during the first quarter of 2022. Based on our current operating and development plans, we are reiterating our growth cash burn guidance for the full year 2022 to be approximately $115 million to $130 million. Given the strength of our balance sheet, we continue to expect our existing cash, cash equivalent and investments to be sufficient to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements through the third quarter of 2023. I will now hand it back to Rich for some final words.
- Richard Murray:
- Thanks, Kim. The combination of our clinical execution, innovative science and financial resources puts us in a strong position to move beyond our next set of inflection points. We are extremely pleased to be able to update you on the progress we have made in INNATE and SELECT trials, keeping us on track to report data later this year. We are working hard to build an IO pipeline, which looks to address the growing unmet need faced by cancer patients. We are privileged to be working on this mission together with such a talented group of individuals at accounts and fortunate to have such dedicated your collaborators and clinical investigators. This is an exciting time to challenge, and we look forward to updating you on programs as the year progresses. With that, we would now like to open the call to your questions operator.
- Operator:
- . First question comes from Boris Peaker with Cowen.
- Boris Peaker:
- Congratulations on the progress. Can you guys hear me?
- Kimberlee Drapkin:
- Yes. Thanks Boris.
- Boris Peaker:
- Fantastic. My first question on 8064, I guess for the 5 combo cohorts in INNATE that we have not received an update on, how close are they to enrolling and follow up on the initial 10 patients. Just trying to gauge the time line of when other cohorts may be expanded.
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Boris, thanks for the question. This is Beth. Yes, so some cohorts are still enrolling and some cohorts have completed enrollment and we're still waiting for data. So I think, you know, and our plan is on every earnings call. We'll give you an update on how the study's going, but I am really excited about the fact that even at this point in time, we are going to have data on over 60 Phase II patients later this year.
- Boris Peaker:
- Got it. And just follow up on 8064 based on its mechanisms of action. I am curious if you're assessing the HLA of the enrolled patients and can different HLA have a material impact have on activity and also I guess, do have clinical assessment of finding different human HLAs for the drug.
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Sure. So HLA molecules, particularly the ones that are ligands for LILRB2 will be included. We presented data at a poster, I think in 2020, showing some of the work from our humanistic culture data, showing that some of the HLA molecules, you know, could potentially be predictive biomarkers. So those are things that we're looking at. Those are probably lower priority than things like LILRB2, CD-163 things that we've talked about as clearly negative prognostic factors for cancer or for prediction of response to PD-1 inhibitors that we think could be you know, promising predictive marker for JTX-8064.
- Operator:
- Your next question comes from Steve Seedhouse with Raymond James.
- Steven Seedhouse:
- Nice to hear about the progress specifically in INNATE but also across the board. I just wanted to ask if you could sort of rehash how you determined what the actual response rate criteria were in each of the cohorts. And if you could reference, I mean, you have some tables in your presentation slides, your corporate deck, it sort of list historical PD or PDL-1 response rates in the different tumor types, is that-should we look at that as like a sort of a benchmark or a general guide for how you determine the response rates or is that, is that a bit off base?
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Yes. Thanks, Steve. That's a great question. Yes. I would say the, the response rates that we have shared in our corporate deck, which are, you know, these are drawn from small studies, I would say the strongest one of them is the 19% response rate for pembro in frontline PDL-1 positive head and neck cancer, right? So that is in the product label, that is the data on which pembro was approved. The others are numbers that we have gotten from small studies that as closely as possible match the eligibility criteria for the patients in our study. They are generally below 10%. So our goal ultimately is to demonstrate proof of concept in the full 29 patient cohorts. And so that will have to show that our combination looks like it is producing better efficacy than you would see with a PD-1 inhibitor alone based on those benchmarks.
- Steven Seedhouse:
- Very helpful. And then the other questions I just wanted ask you is one, is there anything you can say about the monotherapy data that's accrued? Just if you are seeing any encouraging signals there and also I think you mentioned that you would be updating every earnings call the progress of the trial. So I just wanted to confirm, like, as if you were to meet the response rate criteria in a cohort at some point between now and the next earnings call, wouldn't be something that you would update us. Thanks. Thanks for taking the questions.
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Sure. So I think, you know, we are not reporting on any individual cohort at this time. As we have said, we are actually, I'm really proud of the fact that we enrolled the first patient in January 2021 in Phase I and we are going to have clinical data on over 60 Phase II patients in the second half of this year. So monotherapy patients will be included in that data and we will report it-be reporting at that time and right now our intention is to update on the progress of the study quarterly at our earnings calls.
- Operator:
- And your next question comes from Ted Tenthoff with Piper Sandler.
- Edward Tenthoff:
- Great. And excited to hear about the progress with INNATE II. Since everyone's been asking about that, I will ask you about some of the other LILRB programs. And when it comes to sort of the profile that you see emerging here, is this something where, you know, potentially multiple LILRB2s, sorry, LILRBs might be used together, or do they have different profiles such that they may have different applications. Thanks so much for explaining,
- Dmitri Wiederschain:
- Ted, this is Dmitri Wiederschain, CSO, thanks for the question. You know, we are clearly excited about building a pipeline of highly potent and specific antibodies that block the function of LILRB2, LILRB4 and LILRB1. These are the most well studied LILRB family members with clearly demonstrated inhibitory function in immune cells. You know, I think the function of different LILRB family members may be distinct in different cancer contexts, and this is what we are studying, and this is how we're approaching our clinical development using this translational angle. I mean, I think there may be some redundancy, among LILRBs, but we also see clear evidence of non-overlapping activities. And I think having the pipeline of these 3 highly potent and specific blockers of the LILRB family members gives us an opportunity for rapid combination in the clinic. And finally, what I would say is that, you know, one of the core pillars of our strategy in discovery right now at Jounce is building bispecific molecules that would combine different specificities and would allow for more complete coverage of LILRB family members. And that is a really exciting new development for us.
- Operator:
- And your next question comes from Cory Kasimov with JPMorgan.
- Cory Kasimov:
- Two of them for you both regarding INNATE. As you think about the data update later this year, how do you think about success given that you are going to have a variety of different arms and indications with both monotherapy and combination data? Is this about, you know, finding one or 2 lead indications or more about the breadth of activity across them, and then as a follow up, how important is monotherapy activity in your view when evaluating a cancer compound, even when it is primarily designed to be used in combination?
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Sure. So thanks, Cory. So for your first question, I think the answer is possibly both, right? So we obviously will, you know, be looking for signals that enable us to move forward as quickly as possible on a registration path in one or more indications. But also when we are looking at data across the indications, that is where this year we actually, I think will have enough data to really be starting to evaluate those biomarkers. And in smaller patient sets, which is, you know, what we are still having this year, that is where I think that fact that some of the biomarkers that we are studying are known to be negative prognostic factors. And so if we see a correlation between response and some of these biomarkers, that is kind of the holy grail, right? Because you can take something that you-that really predicts the worst outcomes, and you can turn it into something that predicts better outcomes for patients. So I think that's going to be really powerful. And as I have said before, I think that is one of the strengths of the studies that we have a whole panel of predictive biomarkers. Now they may be more needed in some cancers than others, that some of the data will be starting to get later this year. So we are planning sort of internally, we have clinical development plans with registration paths mapped out for every cohort in the study. And as the data matures, we will start prioritizing which ones we are focusing on for further development. And then your second question, remind me, sorry. I just...
- Cory Kasimov:
- Yes, just the importance of monotherapy activity for a cancer product.
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Sure. So I guess I would turn to examples from things like lag 3, um, you know, which is doing great and showing, benefit on top of PD-1 inhibitors in PD-1 inhibitor naive patients. So we feel clearly immunotherapy is going the path of cancer therapy since the beginning in terms of combination. And so whether or not a drug has to show monotherapy activity, I think is a question what is important is that you design your study in a way that you are able to demonstrate that your drug is actually adding to the PD-1 inhibitor, if it is in combination. And that is what we have tried to do in the PD-1 experienced cohorts in SELECT where we are requiring their most recent prior therapy to be a PD-1 inhibitor. So people who have just progressed on a PD-1 inhibitor are now coming onto the combination therapy, and then also giving those benchmarks to show, you know, what you would expect from a PD-1 inhibitor alone. Most of the indications we are studying, you would not expect much from a PD-1 inhibitor.
- Operator:
- Your next question comes from David Dai with SMBC.
- David Dai:
- So for JTX-8064, especially in the 2 expanding indications, could you comment on whether you have performed any biomarker analysis to support the expansion, to enroll the additional 29 patients each?
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- No, no biomarker analysis is involved in that decision. That is based purely on responses, clinical responses. We will be doing the biomarker analysis later this year and reporting them when we report on the full body of data.
- David Dai:
- Got it. That is helpful. And then for JTX-1484, you decide to move forward with the ILT3 target, whereas other companies have pursuing ILT2 as a lead target. Could you just help us understand the rationale of ILT3 versus ILT2 based on your personal data, what are the advantages of targeting ILT3 pathways?
- Dmitri Wiederschain:
- Yes, thanks for the question, David. This is Dmitri Wiederschain again. As you know, we have advanced JTX-1484, our potent and specific ILT3 LILRB4 blocker into IND enabling studies. We continue to be excited about this program. ILT3 is expressed on distinct subsets of immunosuppressive myeloid cells in the tumor microenvironment. But as you probably know, we also have a discovery program on ILT2 or LILRB1, which is also progressing quite well. And we hope to bring it to development candidate stage in the near future. There are clearly non overlapping biology among, ILT3 and ILT2, for example, ILT2, in addition to myeloid cells is also expressed on a subset of natural killer cells, as well as, CDA T-cells. So really brings an exciting new angle to LILRB activity. So we are actually equally excited about all of our monospecific potent blockers of LILRB family members of LILRB2 in the clinic already. LILRB4 not far behind, and LILRB1 advancing quite well through discovering. Thanks for the question.
- Operator:
- Your next question comes from Arthur He with H.C. Wainwright.
- Arthur He:
- This is Arthur and congratulations on the progress this quarter. I just want follow up on the response criteria for the 8064 program. Besides the overall response rate. Do you guys also look at the PFS, or you purely focus on the ORR to make the decision to moving forward?
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Great, thanks for the question. So for the expansion from 10 patients to 29 patients, that is based solely on response. When we look at the data from all 29 patients, we will be looking at the totality of data, including response rate, biomarkers, PFS, OS all of that to help guide further development, but the initial expansion is just based on response.
- Arthur He:
- Got it. I am just curious, regarding those 2 cohorts you decide to move forward, what is the highest dose level had been tested for patients. Did you guys tested any dose level beyond 700 milligrams?
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Yes, we did. In dose escalation, we went as high as 1200 milligrams. But I will remind everyone, we first saw complete target engagement throughout the entire 3 week dosing cycle at 300 milligrams every 3 weeks. And we chose a dose of 700 milligrams for our recommended phase 2 dose because we wanted to really optimize target engagement, both in the peripheral blood and also in the tumor and the excellent safety profile and safety at 1200 milligrams was our highest intended dose and it was well tolerated. So we were very fortunate to be able to choose a dose that really optimizes our target engagement. And that is the dose that is used for all of the phase 2 patients.
- Operator:
- And our last question is from Nick Abbott with Wells Fargo.
- Nicholas Abbott:
- First off, Beth, thank you for updating us on those poor patients in Ukraine. It is bad enough having cancel alone, having cancel while there is a war going on. So my first question is, for INNATE, can I just confirm that no cohorts have not met the go criteria and then do you expect, or are you seeing pseudo-progression and if so, how are you advising the investigators?
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- So yes, you are correct. All of the cohorts are either continuing to enroll up to the 10 patients or have completed and are waiting for data to make the decision about expansion. And in terms of pseudo-progression, so, all of our investigators are quite experienced with IO therapy. We do allow continued treatment beyond progression in the study but we do not have any particular guidance regarding pseudo-progression for the investigators. We just follow resist, for a response criteria and we do allow treatment beyond progression if patients are doing well clinically.
- Nicholas Abbott:
- Okay. And then, you know, just in terms of this, the, the go, no, go here for the 10 patients, do they have to be a resist response if you see just really outstanding, long term stable disease, that would also be unexpected. Is that something that could allow you to move ahead or would that sort of be something that you look at perhaps later on?
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- Yes. It's for the expansion, it requires a response, a true response.
- Nicholas Abbott:
- Okay, great. And then last one for SELECT. So do you have data on TISvopra? I am sure you do. It is been a long ongoing for a long time, but data on TISvopra, chemo naive versus experienced patients that would give you confidence. You could move from this second line setting to a frontline setting.
- Elizabeth Trehu:
- We, I mean, the data that we have collected is clearly in the studies that you know, that we are doing, but there is data across the literature on TIS. That leads us to believe that yes, we could certainly take this into a frontline setting or potentially into other tumor types.
- Operator:
- Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, this concludes our Q&A and program for today. Thank you for participating. And you may now disconnect.
