SciRhom GmbH, based in IZB Martinsried, Germany, is a biotech start-up company that translates science into the preclinical and early clinical development of novel biopharmaceuticals for the treatment of life-threatening diseases. Improving autoimmune disease therapies is the central aspiration of SciRhom. Based on longstanding academic research and a well-established network of experts, SciRhom was founded in late 2016 through a collaboration between scientists from academia and scientists with profound experience in antibody development. Two patent families cover anti-iRhom2 antibodies and the iRhom2-target epitope. To date, SciRhom has secured about EUR 7 million in seed funding from the High-Tech Gruenderfonds (HTGF), the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) and private investors.
