Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4
Questions and Answers About the Merger
What would be the consequence of a delisting of Kintara's common stock from Nasdaq with
respect to the Merger?, page 5
1.We note your response to prior comment 6 and reissue in part. Please update this Q&A to
discuss the June 12, 2024 conversations with Nasdaq and the 180 day extension Kintara

Summary of the Proxy Statement/Prospectus
TuHURA, page 12

Risk Factors
The Delaware Certificate of Incorporation, which will be the certificate..., page 82
3.We note your response to prior comment 14 and your revised disclosure indicating that
the exclusive forum provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability
created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act. However, this appears inconsistent
with your disclosure elsewhere in this risk factor indicating that the combined company
reserves the right to assert that Delaware Forum Provision applies to actions arising under
the Exchange Act and that federal district courts of the United States will be the exclusive
forum for resolving any complaint arising under the Securities Act. We further note that
the certificate of incorporation filed as Annex G does not appear to contain any carve-outs
for actions arising under the Exchange Act or Securities Act.
Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal jurisdiction over all suits
brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and
regulations thereunder and Section 22 of the Securities Act creates concurrent jurisdiction
for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by
the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Please revise your disclosure
accordingly. If this provision does not apply to actions arising under the Securities Act or
Exchange Act, please also ensure that the exclusive forum provision in the governing
documents states this clearly, or tell us how you will inform investors in future filings that
the provision does not apply to any actions arising under the Securities Act or Exchange
Act.

page 249
6.We note your response to prior comment 35. However, we do not note any revised
disclosure identifying the "predefined" safety and efficacy endpoints for this trial. Please
revise to disclose the initial safety and efficacy endpoints and explain how they were met.
Information About Kintara, page 305
7.Please revise this section to clearly state, if true, that the combined company does not
currently have any plans to advance Kintara's existing technology other than
the enrollment of ten CMBC patients for the clinical trial of REM-001.
