TESTING BUSINESS
MetaPanel™ - Gastrointestinal Pathogen Test
Through Q4 FY24, further progress was made to bring MetaPanel™, a world-first diagnostic test, to healthcare
professionals and patients nationwide across Australia. Growing doctor referrals and sales across all major states. In
collaboration with Sonic Healthcare, the team are driving active KOL engagement, evidence generation activities and
utility publications to support clinician adoption.
National Education:
Successful launch education events have now been held together with Sonic Healthcare across New South Wales,
Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Australian Capital Territory and Tasmania. These events served as valuable
platforms to introduce this new test to healthcare professionals, educate on the technology, and discuss its
application in improving gastrointestinal pathogen diagnosis.
Early Adoption and Sales:
Doctor referrals and sales continue to grow monthly across the country, focused around the major east coast states
New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland. The sales strategy is focused on gastroenterology specialists and general
practitioners (GPs). Through executing direct clinician engagement strategies, growing KOL relationships, active
clinical utility studies and publications together with the Sonic Healthcare team, we expect adoption to translate into
meaningful sales volume and revenues in FY25.
Commercial Opportunity:
MetaPanel™ is a world-first NATA accredited test for diagnosing gastrointestinal pathogens. It is the most
comprehensive gastrointestinal pathogen test available detecting both common and difficult-to-identify pathogens
capable of causing infection. Real world data demonstrates that over 20% of patients tested with MetaPanel get a
diagnosis that would have been undiagnosed or experienced delayed time to diagnosis and resolution 1. It is
estimated that total global addressable market for the MetaPanel test is over US $9B 2.

THERAPEUTICS BUSINESS
Inflammatory Bowel Disease Program – Preparing MAP 315 for Phase 2
During the quarter, further progress was made to prepare lead drug candidate MAP 315 for a Phase 2 clinical trial.
Recent pre-clinical data supports the core mechanisms of action for MAP 315 stimulating mucosal healing (modulation
of WNT signaling pathway, restoration of gut barrier integrity) and immune homeostasis (induction of regulatory T cells),
both central to the etiology and pathophysiology of Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
Phase 2 trial plans
Progress was made over the quarter to prepare for a Phase 2 clinical trial both including regulatory and
manufacturing (CMC). This includes generation of the proposed clinical protocol in collaboration with a global
specialty Contract Research Organisation. The team are continuing to bolster the CMC package in support of at scale
GMP manufacturing, finalise the regulatory documentation and achieve readiness for an investigation new drug
(IND) submission.
Commercial Opportunity
In December 2023 Microba successfully completed a Phase 1, first in human clinical trial for lead drug candidate
MAP 315.
Preclinical characterisation data, together with the Phase 1 clinical study results and feedback from Microba’s
medical advisory board provide strong positive support for continuing to advance the clinical development of MAP
315 for the treatment of UC.
MAP 315 is being developed for the treatment of UC, a debilitating form of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) with
>50% of patients unable to achieve sustained remission with current standard of care. The market for UC treatment
was valued at US$7.5b in 2020 and is forecast to grow to US$10.8b by 2030 5.
Microba’s novel drug candidate MAP 315 was originally identified using the Company’s data-driven Therapeutic
Platform, demonstrating that this previously unidentified novel bacterial species is commonly observed in healthy
individuals but consistently deficient in individuals with IBD, and in particular UC. Subsequent pre-clinical
investigation of MAP 315 through both in vitro and in vivo models demonstrated that MAP 315 promotes epithelial
restitution and mucosal healing – biological activities that are associated with disease remission but not adequately
addressed through existing therapies. MAP 315 provides a compelling commercial opportunity to fill a key gap in the
current standard of care for UC treatment and represents a potential novel treatment paradigm for patients living
with this debilitating disease.
Immuno-Oncology Program – Clinical data and sample set grown to over 3,500 patients
During the quarter data analysis was continued, and Microba’s clinical data and sample set was grown to over 3,500
patients. These additional clinical insights are expected to support the lead candidate selection decision processes and
the pre-clinical package.
Data growth
Through the national Precision Oncology Screening Platform Enabling Clinical Trials (PrOSPeCT) study 6 Microba is
capturing a large and diverse bank of patient specimens for cancer patients receiving treatment and enrolled in
clinical trials. This has quickly grown to over 2,500 patient samples and is expected to be one of the largest clinical

specimen resources with respect to the microbiome and cancer treatment. This resource adds to more than 1,000
patient samples Microba has previously analysed from internally recruited and published studies.
Commercial Opportunity
This program is targeting the development of a therapeutic to improve response rates in cancer patients receiving
immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy. Global ICI sales continue to grow, with Merck announcing sales of the
market-leading drug Keytruda of US$25b for calendar year 2023 7.
There is an increasing body of literature supporting a key role for the microbiome in cancer 8. Cancer
immunotherapy, and more specifically ICIs have become standard of care for a range of tumour types. However,
despite their impact on cancer treatment, up to 70% of patients do not respond to these drugs 9, 10 leaving a large,
underserved patient population. Differences in the microbiomes of responders and non-responders to ICI treatment
have been observed in international studies, and treatment of the microbiome using faecal microbiome transplants
has demonstrated the ability to turn ICI non-responders into responders 11, 12.
Microba has compiled a clinical dataset of over 1,000 individuals treated with ICIs from prospective recruited studies
and published human clinical trial data. Using the Company’s data-driven Therapeutic Platform, this has enabled the
Company to identify organisms that are commonly observed in ICI responders, but consistently deficient in ICI nonresponders Subsequent pre-clinical investigation of these leads through both in vitro models and in vivo animal
models has demonstrated that these organisms induce specific and targeted immune responses, and are able to
significantly reduce tumour burden. A microbiome-based adjuvant therapy that increases response to these drugs
has the potential to become standard of care across a range of cancers, and therefore represents a substantial
commercial opportunity for Microba.
Autoimmune Disease Program – Successful completion of discovery program
During the quarter, the autoimmune disease discovery program with partner Ginkgo Bioworks (NYSE: DNA) was
successfully completed on time and on budget with primary and secondary activity screening data received for all lead
bacterial strains.
Results
o Delivered compelling biological activity enabling selection of 6 lead strains which demonstrate significant disease
relevant activity, generating new therapeutic intellectual property assets for the Company
o The program generated more than 3 million data points, and is considered a world-first microbiome therapeutic
discovery effort
o The high activity hit-rate, further validates Microba’s data driven therapeutic platform and valuation of the
Microba Therapeutic business
Commercial Opportunity
In June 2024, Microba completed its lead discovery program in partnership with Ginkgo Bioworks (NYSE: DNA)
identifying 6 leads which demonstrate significant Autoimmune Disease relevant activity.
The data generated through the discovery program provides strong biological validation for further investment in

these assets to move into the next stage of development.
The goal of this program is to discover and develop novel treatments for autoimmune diseases such as lupus,
psoriatic arthritis and certain autoimmune liver diseases. Microba’s Autoimmune Disease program was established in
partnership with Ginkgo Bioworks (NYSE: DNA) in FY22 following Ginkgo’s strategic investment into Microba’s IPO.
Both parties in collaboration committed to a 2-year drug discovery program principally targeting autoimmune
disorders. The partnership brought together Microba’s unique ability to identify and isolate human gut bacteria
associated with health together with the high-throughput microbial screening capabilities of Ginkgo, creating a
powerful drug discovery workflow.
Functional changes in the microbiome have been unequivocally linked to a broad range of autoimmune disease 13 14
Autoimmune diseases are a family of more than 80 chronic and often life-threatening illnesses, which occur when
the body’s own immune system attacks the body’s healthy cells, tissues and organs. Autoimmune conditions now
impact around 5% of the population and their prevalence is rising 15. The global market for autoimmune disease
treatments was estimated to be US$198b in 2023 and forecast to grow to US$288b by 2028 16. This program
represents a compelling opportunity to identify a next generation of autoimmune therapeutics from the human
microbiome.
Financial Update
Unaudited revenue for the June 2024 quarter totalled $4.81m, representing 113% YoY growth with Personal Testing &
Supplements up 209% to $3.95m, and Research Testing down 12% to $0.86m. Cash receipts for the June 2024 quarter
totalled $4.65m, up 275% YoY.
As at 30 June 2024, Microba had $20.9m in cash or equivalents, which does not include the approximately $6m relating to
the Company’s FY24 R&D Tax Incentive which is expected to be received in H1 FY25.
In accordance with Listing Rule 4.7C, payments made during the quarter to related parties and their associates included in
item 6.1 of Appendix 4C was $157,999 and included Director fees.
