Candel Therapeutics’ $100M Royalty Funding Agreement with RTW to Support Aglatimagene Besadenovec (CAN-2409) Launch in Localized Prostate Cancer Announced

We are thrilled with our RTW partnership, as we seek to provide a new treatment option for patients in the early stages of prostate cancer who are treated with curative intent, a disease that has seen minimal innovation over the past two decades.”
