Strand Therapeutics Raises $153M Series B Financing to Further Advance Programmable mRNA Therapeutic Pipeline
“With support from our investors, we’re advancing our vision of developing safe, effective, and accessible therapies through programmable genetic medicines, especially for those patients with few treatment options,” said Jake Becraft, PhD, CEO and Co-founder of Strand Therapeutics. “Our initial STX-001 Phase 1 data provides early and strong clinical validation of our platform’s capabilities. We have observed systemic immune activation and anti-tumor responses, including responses in non-injected lesions, across multiple tumor types. Now is an exciting period of expansion for our existing clinical work, as well as the exciting breakthrough assets in our pipeline, all with the potential to transform the treatment of cancer and other serious diseases.”
