TransCode Therapeutics to acquire Polynoma and use $25M funds by CK Life Sciences to advance TTX-MC138 into Ph 2 trial
Dr. Philippe Calais, TransCode’s Chief Executive Officer, stated that “I am very honored to deepen my commitment and lead TransCode’s transformation into a one-of-a-kind leading oncology company at this critical time. We are grateful for CK Life Sciences’ investment and their support of our miRNA candidate, TTX-MC138, as we now have the funding in place to fully execute our upcoming TTX-MC138 Phase 2. This acquisition allows us to create a unique and broader pipeline with Phase 3 ready seviprotimut-L, and potentially realize synergies between both technologies, for the ultimate benefit of patients suffering from cancer and metastases. Between the two programs, we see a unique potential to augment seviprotimut-L’s focus with our microRNA lead program, TTX-MC138, by addressing the micrometastases in stage IIB and IIC melanoma patients.”
