Retinal therapeutics development company, Oxular, has announced in a March 1, 2021 press release that it has raised US $37 million in a financing round led by specialist life sciences investor, Forbion.
The monies raised will be used to fund Phase II clinical studies evaluating the company’s 12-month treatment for diabetic macular edema (DME), OXU-001. The studies are expected to start later in 2021. Additionally, funds will be allocated to progressing the company’s early-product pipeline.
