As quoted in the press release:

“During the third quarter we raised USD 117.5 million, and broadened our shareholder base with 11 new institutional investors. We are grateful for the continued support of our existing shareholders who also participated. These proceeds are expected to fund our three pillar strategy through at least 2021, excluding potential incoming milestones. This capital raise, and the established investors who participated, are a strong endorsement of our scientific pipeline and business model.”

“We also continued to advance key assets in our pipeline, announcing both the start and dosing of the first patient in the Phase 2 trial with ACI-24 in patients with mild Alzheimer’s disease and completing recruitment for the high-dose cohort of the Phase 1b study with ACI-24 for Abeta-related cognitive decline in individuals with Down Syndrome. Vaccines are potentially an important option for the treatment and prevention of neurodegenerative diseases and are one of our main targets for clinical development.
