Promatix Biosciences Awarded Innovate UK Biomedical Catalyst Grant to Advance First-in-Class EGFR × EphA2 Cis-Bispecific ADC

“Non-dilutive funding of this kind is strong external validation of both our lead programme and the proteomics-driven discovery platform behind it,” said Dr. Michael Hunter, CEO and Co-Founder of Promatix. “It will enable us to advance PBS293-exatecan in colorectal cancer while extending the same logic-gated approach to further solid  tumours, including oesophageal and non-small cell lung cancer.
