OMass Therapeutics Ltd, an Oxford University spin-out that is using mass spectrometry to discover new drugs, has raised an additional £27.5 million in an extended Series A financing, bringing total proceeds from the round up to £41.5 million. The new capital will be used to progress a pipeline of small molecule therapeutics for patients with immunological and genetic disorders, enabling the company to bring its lead programme into preclinical development. The latest funding was supplied by the existing investors Syncona Ltd and Oxford Sciences Innovation.
