Francois Martelet, CEO of Scandion comments

“We are pleased with the outcome from this rights issue and wish to thank our shareholders for the strong support and participation under very difficult market conditions. The new funding will give us the ability to push forward with our clinical development of our lead candidate SCO-101 in drug resistant metastatic colorectal cancer. The next step is the finalization of the extended CORIST Part 3 trial (phase IIa) where we intend to increase the dose of irinotecan to achieve the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and maximal effect of SCO-101 in combination with FOLFIRI. SCO-101 has a novel dual-acting mode-of-action that we are convinced will play a significant role in the treatment of cancers.”
