Curve Therapeutics has raised £40.5 million ($51.4 million) in a Series A round to advance its small cyclic peptide-based discovery platform and drug candidates, including plans for a Phase I cancer trial in 2026.
The proceeds will be used to take one of the UK biotech’s two preclinical programs into a Phase I oncology trial, with one option being a dual inhibitor of hypoxia-inducible factor isotopes, and the other an AICAR transformylase/inosine monophosphate cyclohydrolase (ATIC) dimerization inhibitor.
