Tatton Consulting supported Braintree-based oncology therapeutics company Spirea in its successful application to Biomedical Catalyst 2024 Round 1: Industry-led R&D, which was awarded £474,695 by Innovate UK for the project The development of a new first-in-class cancer therapeutic for difficult-to-treat metastatic Triple Negative Breast.
About the funded R&D project
Development of a new first-in-class cancer therapeutic, building on Spirea’s earlier Innovate UK-supported work on advanced therapies in cancer. First-in-class denotes a mechanism of action not shared by any approved drug, which carries both the highest clinical risk and the strongest commercial position if it succeeds.
