🩸 Annually in France alone, 4,000 patients lack access to effective treatments for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), a fast-growing type of blood cancer. Earlybird Health portfolio company Priothera SAS is pioneering a novel immune modulator to enhance the curative potential of both allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) and CAR-T cell therapy for severe blood cancers. 🌏 With the potential to improve AML patient survival by 30-40%, Priothera has rapidly advanced since its 2020 inception. Its lead candidate, Mocravimod, is currently in a Phase 3 global clinical study across Europe, the USA, Asia, and Latin America. In a recent interview on BFM Business, Priothera’s CEO and Earlybird Health Partner Florent Gros explains how the company found a way to drive the anti-cancer immune response after stem cell transplantation – which could be a game-changer for AML cancer patients. 👀 Watch the full interview (🇫🇷 with 🇬🇧 subtitles) at bit.ly/4enCYww Cc: Stephan Oehen, Elisabeth Kueenburg, Brice Suire, Thom Rasche, John Yianni, Dr. Christoph Massner, Rabab Nasrallah, PhD, Junkai Z., Zeynep Nisan Gündüz, Valeriya S., Valeriya Leshukova, Elisheva Marcus, Elena Marchesi #EBVCgang #Biotech #Mocravimod #AML #Cancer

💐🏡 How do boutique VCs coexist with larger & long-established VCs? A recent Gründerszene article by Nina Anika Klotz dives into this topic, highlighting how the two entities work hand in hand. Earlybird Partner Dr. Hendrik Brandis explains “There are basically two ways to create value as a VC, the first is to utilize personal networks and expertise, and the second is to use intelligent systems and structures. The former works well for boutique VCs; however, given the naturally limited size of personal networks, this approach is always limited. What firms like Earlybird do is scalable. Both business models have their justification and will always coexist.” ⚡️ Differentiation is healthy in all markets, and the tech ecosystem is no exception! As described by Headline Partner Christian Miele “Micro VCs play a complementary role in a healthy tech ecosystem. The focus and scale of micro VCs do not overlap with those of large funds.” 👉 Read more here: https://bit.ly/3MvWwmG #Fundraising #Founders #Startups
