Egle Therapeutics Receives €9.3 Million in State Funding Under the “Innovations in Biotherapies and Bioproduction” Call for Projects from France 2030
Egle Therapeutics, a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing therapies targeting regulatory T cells (Tregs) for immuno-oncology and autoimmune diseases, today announced that it has secured €9.3 million in state funding under the “Innovations in Biotherapies and Bioproduction” call for projects from the France 2030 plan, managed on behalf of the French government by Bpifrance.
Founded in 2020 as a spin-off from Institut Curie, Egle Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company specializing in immunomodulation, with the ambition to develop novel approaches to the modulation of Treg activity for the treatment of cancer and autoimmune diseases.
Egle Therapeutics has developed a proprietary translational platform to identify novel tumor-infiltrating Treg targets, with the aim of developing antibody-based candidate drugs to disable Treg function and restore an effective antitumor immune response.
In June 2020, Egle Therapeutics entered a strategic partnership with Takeda Pharmaceuticals, establishing a three-year research collaboration with an option agreement. Since its inception, the company has successfully raised nearly €56 million through equity financing and non-dilutive public funding, including the i-Lab Innovation Competition and DeepTech Development Grant.
During its Series A financing round in October 2021, the company raised €47 million, attracting renowned investors, including EQT Life Sciences, Bpifrance (INNOBIO 2 and Innovation 1), Fund Plus, Bioqube Factory Fund, T1D Fund, and Takeda Ventures.
In 2024, Egle Therapeutics achieved key milestones, including the launch of its Phase I/II clinical trial for EGL-001, the appointment of Michel Detheux as Chairman, and the appointment of Christophe Quéva as Chief Executive Officer.
“We are honored to receive this funding from the French government through France 2030. This recognition and immense support will help Egle Therapeutics advance its research and development programs in regulatory T cell modulation. The funding granted under the ‘Innovations in Biotherapies and Bioproduction’ call for projects will enable us to accelerate the development of EGL-001, our lead immuno-oncology therapeutic candidate. EGL-001 is currently being evaluated in a Phase I/II clinical trial in France and Spain.”
Christophe Quéva, CEO of Egle Therapeutics
