Series C round led by Deep Track Capital with participation from additional new and existing investors
Financing will fund early-to-mid-stage clinical studies for ATTO-1310 in chronic pruritus and ATTO-3712 in atopic dermatitis, and multiple earlier-stage multi-specific programs
SAN CARLOS, Calif., April 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Attovia Therapeutics, a privately-held, clinical-stage biopharma company developing treatments for immune-mediated diseases with high unmet patient need, today announced the close of a $90 million Series C financing. The funding round was led by Deep Track Capital with participation from new investors including Vida Ventures, Sanofi Ventures, and Mirae Asset Capital Life Science, and ongoing support from existing investors including Frazier Life Sciences, venBio, Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Nextech Ventures, Cormorant Asset Management, EcoR1 Capital, Marshall Wace, and Illumina Ventures. In conjunction with the financing, Rebecca Luse, Managing Director at Deep Track Capital, will join the Company’s Board of Directors.
Proceeds from the financing, along with the Company’s existing cash and investments, will be used to advance Attovia’s lead assets, ATTO-1310 and ATTO-3712, through clinical proof-of-concept, with the aim of achieving best-in-disease efficacy for the treatment of chronic pruritus and atopic dermatitis. The funds will also enable focused expansion of Attovia’s pipeline of multi-specific therapeutic candidates utilizing the company’s proprietary ATTOBODY technology to develop breakthrough treatment options for patients suffering from immune-mediated disorders, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and others.
“Completing what was an oversubscribed round of financing during this time speaks to the standout potential of our platform, programs, and excellent team,” said Tao Fu, Attovia’s founder and CEO. “We deeply appreciate the support of our exceptional investor base and the shared commitment to transforming the lives of patients living with immune-mediated diseases. We now have a multi-year runway to advance our programs expeditiously, expand our pipeline judiciously, and pursue potential partnerships, all of which should give us greater optionality for the future.”
The financing allows Attovia to continue to advance its first ATTOBODY-based product candidate, ATTO-1310, a first-in-class, half-life extended anti-IL31 biologic, currently in Phase 1 studies, to provide a highly efficacious, fast acting, and convenient treatment option for chronic pruritus of unknown origin (CPUO)—a disease affecting millions of patients in the U.S. and other developed countries with currently no approved treatments—as well as additional pruritic conditions with urgent unmet need.
