SINGAPORE<\/span>, Oct. 13, 2021 \/PRNewswire\/ — AUM Biosciences (AUM) today announced the successful completion of USD $27 million<\/span> series A funding round. This will fuel AUM’s vision of developing a world class biotech pipeline focused on drugging what many consider as the undruggable targets, as well as addressing the need to delay and overcome resistance to targeted drugs in oncology. The funding will also accelerate pipeline expansion and business growth. This round was led by private equity funds including Singapore<\/span>-based Everlife<\/a> and globally focused health sciences investment firm SPRIM Global investments (SGI).<\/a> <\/p>\n
