Basecamp Research raises $140M to advance AI-designed therapeutics. Sep 23, 2026, 09:00 ET * Oversubscribed Series C led by S32 with backing from NVIDIA and others * Funding will advance a pipeline of EDEN-designed therapeutics, starting with in vivo cell therapy, and expand pharmaceutical partnerships * The company has demonstrated strong preclinical results across multiple modalities and disease areas LONDON and BOSTON, Sept. 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Basecamp Research, a frontier AI company developing AI-designed medicines, today announced a $140M Series C financing to train a new generation of EDEN models and advance a pipeline of AI-designed therapeutics towards clinical development. Basecamp's ambition is to develop cures for diseases that remain incurable by designing medicines that reprogram the body to repair itself. The company combines frontier AI models trained on proprietary biological data with technology for writing DNA sequences into cells. "We believe the future of medicine lies in reprogramming the body to repair itself. We design the models and the medicines to teach it how," said Glen Gowers, co-founder and CEO of Basecamp Research. "AI-based approaches promise to change what's possible for patients who currently have few alternatives. This funding brings this technology closer to those who need it most." The oversubscribed round was led by S32, with participation from Anthropic's Anthology Fund, Catalio Capital Management, European Tech Collective, Firebrand River Capital, Inception Fund, King Philanthropies, NATO Innovation Fund, NVIDIA, PostScriptum, Redalpine, The Rockefeller Foundation, Singular, Sovereign AI and True Ventures. Additional investment comes from senior leaders from across pharma, biotech, and global industry, including André Hoffmann, Vice-Chairman of Roche, who said: "The biotechnology revolution that began fifty years ago transformed how we make medicines. Personalised, AI-designed therapeutics represent the next transformation of that journey. Basecamp Research has built the full platform to deliver it, from biological data to trained models to designed therapies. This will be key in helping the industry to continue to innovate." Applying EDEN to develop new therapies Basecamp Research is applying EDEN, its biological foundation model, to in vivo cell therapy - reprogramming a patient's cells inside the body. Today's cell therapies are limited both in the complexity of what they can deliver and by a manufacturing process that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars per patient. By pairing EDEN's ability to design long and complex DNA sequences with large serine recombinases that can precisely integrate them into the genome, Basecamp's platform aims to underpin the future of cell therapies, making them more sophisticated, more customisable and simpler to administer. This has the potential to transform how we treat cancer, autoimmune disease, and more. The company has demonstrated strong preclinical results across multiple modalities and disease areas. To expand its pharmaceutical partnerships, Basecamp has appointed Richard Pearce, formerly of Biogen, as Chief Business Officer. Andy Conrad, General Partner at S32 and former CEO of Google's Verily, who joins the Board of Directors, said: "AI is opening up new possibilities across every part of society, but perhaps nowhere is the potential more meaningful than in human health. The ability to combine AI, biological data and scientific insight could transform how we understand disease, discover medicines and ultimately improve and extend people's lives. Basecamp Research is building an important technology platform at the center of that opportunity." The AI and data powering Basecamp Research's therapies At the centre of Basecamp Research's AI platform is the Trillion Gene Atlas, the world's largest proprietary biological AI training dataset. Built with partners including NVIDIA, Anthropic, PacBio and Ultima Genomics, the Atlas draws on biological data collected through access and benefit-sharing partnerships in more than 30 countries across all seven continents. Trained on this data, the company's EDEN models recognise patterns across a huge breadth of previously unseen biology. Unlike AI systems developed for a single scientific task, EDEN models aim to deliver a universal understanding of how DNA works across all of life. This means that the models can generate potential therapeutic candidates directly from information about a disease, an approach already demonstrated through Basecamp's collaboration with Anthropic on Claude Science. The EDEN models' capabilities include designing cell and gene therapies, enzymes and peptides. About Basecamp Research Basecamp Research trains frontier AI models for therapeutic design. The EDEN models are trained on the Trillion Gene Atlas, the world's largest proprietary genomic dataset, collected through partnerships in more than 30 countries worldwide. Its pipeline of EDEN-designed therapeutics, beginning with in vivo cell therapy, is advancing towards clinical development. Basecamp Research is headquartered in London with offices and labs in Cambridge, MA. SOURCE Basecamp Research
Cambridge, Mass. – May 14, 2026 – Biogen Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB) today announced the successful completion of the acquisition of Apellis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: APLS). Apellis, a leader in advancing treatments for serious, complement-driven diseases, is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Biogen.
LEQEMBI(R) Pen (subcutaneous formulation of LEQEMBI(R) approved in Japan for the treatment of early Alzheimer's Disease. The first and only anti-amyloid treatment in Japan that enable at-home administration for Alzheimer's Disease, a progressive disease. TOKYO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Eisai Co., Ltd. and Biogen Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB), announced today that "LEQEMBI(R) Pen", the subcutaneous (SC) formulation of the anti-amyloid beta (Aβ) protofibril antibody "LEQEMBI(R)" (brand name, generic name: lecanemab) has been approved in Japan as a new route of administration. LEQEMBI Pen is an autoinjector formulation that enables administration by a care partner or patient self-administration, with two pens (totaling 500 mg) administered once weekly. With this approval, LEQEMBI treatment now offers a new option of once-weekly SC administration at home*, in addition to intravenous (IV) administration every two weeks in a hospital setting. LEQEMBI Pen may reduce the time required for anti-amyloid therapy administration compared with IV infusions (approximate injection time of 15 seconds per injection). In addition, at-home administration may reduce the burden of clinic visits for patients and their care partners and provide greater flexibility in treatment, allowing patients to make treatment choices that better fit their lifestyles, including fewer constraints on going out and traveling. The improved convenience and flexibility of treatment with LEQEMBI is expected to lower barriers to initiating and continuing treatment with LEQEMBI. Furthermore, LEQEMBI Pen also has the potential to reduce healthcare resources associated with IV dosing, such as nurse monitoring, as well as maintaining infusion capacity. These features are expected to contribute to further streamlining the overall Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment pathway. For amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) monitoring, as with IV administration, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is performed prior to initiating treatment and at specified time points after treatment initiation. AD is a progressive, relentless disease with Aβ and tau as hallmarks that is caused by a continuous underlying neurotoxic process driven by protofibrils that begins before amyloid plaque accumulation and continues after plaque removal.[1,2,] [3] Only LEQEMBI fights AD in two ways - targeting both protofibrils and amyloid plaque. This marks the third country globally to approve LEQEMBI SC formulation. This approval is based on the integrated results of data and associated modeling and simulation from the 18-month core study of the Phase 3 Clarity AD study of LEQEMBI in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD or mild AD dementia (collectively referred to as early AD), as well as multiple SC administration sub-studies in its subsequent long-term extension study (LTE). Once-weekly administration of SC formulation 500 mg demonstrated similar exposure to IV administration once every two weeks and supported the expectation that the SC formulation provides efficacy comparable to that of the IV formulation. The overall safety profile of SC administration was generally similar to that of IV administration, while systemic injection/infusion-related reactions were observed less frequently with SC administration (1.4%)** than with IV administration. Eisai serves as the lead for lecanemab's development and regulatory submissions globally, with Eisai and Biogen co-commercializing and co-promoting the product and Eisai having final decision-making authority. * At-home, self-administration using LEQEMBI Pen will be possible after it is listed in the injectable drug list designated by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare that health insurance doctor can administer (or prescribe), following deliberation and approval by the Central Social Insurance Medical Council, in principle within 60 days after approval. In addition, the following points are stipulated to be observed when self-administering. * When initiating administration, treatment must be administered by a physician or under the direct supervision of a physician at a medical facility. * With regard to the applicability of self-administration, the appropriateness thereof shall be carefully considered, and only after providing thorough education and training, and confirming that the patient or family member/caregiver understands the risks associated with administration of this drug and how to respond to them, and that the patient or family member/caregiver is able to reliably administer it themselves, shall self-administration be implemented under the management and guidance of a physician. ** Incidence in participants newly initiated on lecanemab treatment via SC administration, based on clinical data obtained from once-weekly subcutaneous administration of lecanemab 720 mg using vial formulations. | Eisai Co., Ltd.
