Netherlands-based Kiadis Pharma NV has raised €17 million in two private share placements enabling the cell therapy company to advance products for patients with both liquid and solid tumours. On 6 May, not long after the financing completed, the company received notice from US Food and Drug Administration that it could proceed with a Phase 2 study of its lead product – an adjunctive cell therapy for blood cancer patients undergoing a haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplant.
