Epsilogen Secures $12.5 Million in Series B Funding for Groundbreaking Cancer Immunotherapy Development

Epsilogen, a global pioneer in the development of immunoglobulin (IgE) antibodies for cancer treatment, has successfully secured $12.5 million in funding to further its groundbreaking research and clinical trials. This key infusion of capital marks a significant milestone for the company, which is harnessing the unique attributes of IgE to revolutionize the way solid tumors are treated. With IgE's superior potency, enhanced access to tumors, and prolonged tissue half-life, Epsilogen is poised to lead the charge against some of the most challenging cancers. The company’s lead program focuses on the folate receptor alpha (FR alpha), with an innovative anti-FR alpha IgE antibody currently advancing through phase I trials for ovarian cancer. This is particularly notable as it represents the world’s first IgE therapeutic to ever enter clinical testing, illustrating Epsilogen's commitment to pioneering novel therapies in oncology. The newly acquired funding will be instrumental in progressing this trailblazing research and accelerating the development of more effective treatment options for patients battling solid tumors. With this significant capital raise, Epsilogen aims not only to advance its lead program but also to explore additional applications of IgE antibodies in cancer immunotherapy, potentially transforming patient outcomes and setting a new standard in oncology treatment protocols. The company is enthusiastic about the road ahead and is determined to leverage these resources to bring innovative therapies to market that can significantly enhance survival rates and quality of life for patients globally.
