Oncolytics Biotech Inc
Oncolytics Biotech Inc (ONCY) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing pelareorep (also known as REOLYSIN), a reovirus-based oncolytic immunotherapy intended to selectively infect and kill tumour cells and stimulate anti-tumour immune responses. The company is focused on combination studies pairing pelareorep with chemotherapy, immune checkpoint inhibitors and other agents across multiple solid tumour indications. With a market capitalisation around $108.12M, Oncolytics is a small-cap, research-driven business with typical biotech dynamics: value is largely tied to clinical trial readouts, regulatory progress and partnerships. Investors should expect high volatility, potential dilution from financing, and long development timelines. While the mechanism has scientific rationale and some encouraging early data, outcomes are uncertain.

Clinical-stage immunotherapy
Pelareorep aims to both kill tumour cells and boost anti-tumour immunity; trial readouts can materially affect prospects, though results are uncertain.
Combination therapy focus
Many studies pair pelareorep with chemo or immune checkpoint inhibitors — partnerships could de‑risk development but regulatory hurdles remain.
Speculative small-cap
Market cap near $108M implies higher volatility and potential dilution; suitable for investors who accept biotech-specific risks and long timelines.
