RTW Co-leads $45 Million Series B-1 Round in Oricell

· RTW Venture Fund Limited announces a new portfolio company, Oricell Therapeutics Co., Ltd.

· The proceeds from the Series B-1 financing round are intended to support Oricell's core product clinical development in the U.S.

RTW Venture Fund Limited (the "Company"), a London Stock Exchange-listed investment company focused on identifying transformative assets with high growth potential across the life sciences sector, is pleased to note the announcement by Oricell Therapeutics Co., Ltd ("Oricell") on 28 February 2023 regarding the completion of its $45M Series B-1 financing round.

The Company, alongside other investment vehicles of RTW Investments, LP (the "Investment Manager"), confirms that it co-led participation in the Series B-1 financing round together with other investors.

Oricell is a China-based innovative pharmaceutical company committed to the development of tumour cellular immunotherapeutics. The proceeds from this financing round will primarily be used to support Oricell's core product clinical development in the U.S., specifically OriCAR-017, a GPRC5D CAR-T therapeutic that treats relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), which is currently at the IND enabling stage in both the US and China.

Roderick Wong, M.D., Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer at the Investment Manager, said:

"We are pleased to have established a partnership with Oricell through an initial investment in its Series B-1 financing. We look forward to supporting the company and its team as they continue to develop potentially world class therapies for cancer patients across the world, whilst creating value for the scientific community and its shareholders."

The Investment Manager is looking forward to growing the Company's investment pipeline and updating shareholders on further investments in due course.
