IP Group plc - Portfolio company Enterprise Therapeutics raises GBP29m funding
IP Group plc (LSE: IPO) ("IP Group" or "the Group"), the developer of intellectual property-based businesses, is pleased to note that its portfolio company Enterprise Therapeutics Limited ("Enterprise" or "the Company"), has announced a GBP29 million fundraising.
Enterprise Therapeutics, which entered the IP Group portfolio following the combination with Touchstone Innovations, is developing muco-regulatory therapies to treat patients with respiratory diseases of high unmet medical need, where mucus obstruction reduces lung function, leading to difficulty in breathing and recurrent lung infections.
The financing, which was oversubscribed, was co-led by Versant Ventures and Novartis Venture Fund with funding from new investor Forbion and existing shareholders Epidarex Capital and IP Group.
IP Group has committed to invest a total of GBP4.7 million of the round, which is tranched and subject to the achievement of certain milestones. The Group has invested GBP2.5 million in the first tranche of the fundraising.
The investment will fund Enterprise Therapeutics' drug discovery pipeline of muco-regulatory therapies into clinical development, enabling new treatment options for cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and severe asthma.
