The team behind Phire Therapeutics found itself during a 4-year long collaborative effort between ETH Zurich and University Hospital Zurich. They are developing a novel immunologic approach to selectively eliminate the patient’s healthy and diseased hematopoietic cells and therefore enable HSCT and potential cure. The funds from Venture Kick will be used for Business Development and IP-related experiments.
