Lyon, France – 19 January 2021: The Silikotac Program consortium, consisting of ElsaLys Biotech, Novadiscovery (“NOVA”) and two expert academic teams from Hôpital St Louis (Paris) and Hôpital Henri Mondor (Paris), has been awarded €3.35 million in non-dilutive funding by Bpifrance to support development of inolimomab in graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), the main complication that may occur after an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The ambition of the Silikotac Program is to create the first French industrial and scientific immunotherapy chain group focused on GvHD.
This financing is part of the PSPC (Projet de recherche et développement Structurant pour la Compétitivité) program fund from Bpifrance, a financing initiative from the French government to support new and emerging industries within France.
