Find Clinical Drug Pipeline Developments & Deals by Be Biopharma
Under the terms of the agreement, Be Bio obtains non-exclusive research, clinical and commercial rights to use MaxCyte’s Flow Electroporation® technology and ExPERT platform to support the development of Be Bio’s BCMs programs.
BE-101 is a novel engineered B cell medicine, which produces active and sustained levels of Factor IX (FIX) and it is currently being evaluated for the treatment of hemophilia B.
Proceeds will advance autologous and allogeneic Engineered B Cell Medicine (BeCM) platforms, as well as progress pipeline candidates in oncology and rare disease toward investigational new drug (IND) applications.
The company plans to use this funding to precisely engineer B cells to treat a range of diseases, building on the pioneering work of Drs. Rawlings and James at Seattle Children’s Research Institute.
