Nick La Thangue, CEO of IngenOx, and Professor of Cancer Biology at the University of Oxford commented:

“We are very excited by the merger which creates a company with a highly innovative pipeline, a talented and driven management team supported by a balanced group of investor shareholders. This provides the basis for success and future growth. IngenOx has the critical mass to bring a range of novel cancer therapies through clinical development and onwards towards market launch.
