SigX Therapeutics has recently made the exciting announcement that it has successfully wrapped up a Series A funding round, raising RMB 80 million. This round of investment saw participation from a number of institutions, prominently featuring Pine Grove Capital. The freshly acquired funds are earmarked for several key initiatives. Firstly, they will be instrumental in propelling the global Phase II clinical trial of SigX Therapeutics' inaugural drug development pipeline, SIGX1094, forward. Additionally, the company plans to utilize these funds for the Investigational New Drug (IND) submission and the commencement of the Phase I clinical trial for its second pipeline, SIGX2649.

In tandem with these clinical endeavors, SigX Therapeutics is set to broaden its strategic positioning within the realm of targeted therapy for malignant metastatic solid tumors. The company aims to harness the power of organoid platforms to fuel groundbreaking research and development in innovative drugs.

Pine Grove Capital, which played a pivotal role as the lead investor in SigX Therapeutics' angel funding round, has chosen to amplify its investment. This move underscores the capital firm's confidence in and endorsement of SigX Therapeutics' groundbreaking 'organoid + AI' drug development system.

This focus is channeled through its cutting-edge 'organoid + AI' platform. To date, the company has achieved significant milestones, including the successful identification of novel drug targets. In a collaborative effort with XtalPi, SigX Therapeutics has embarked on the development of innovative targeted drugs. The progress of its first pipeline, SIGX1094, has been smooth sailing, while the second pipeline, SIGX2649, is gearing up for IND applications in both China and the United States.

Moreover, SigX Therapeutics' 'organoid + AI' research approach has garnered authoritative acclaim. The company has also played an active role in the formulation of standards pertaining to organoids.
