Af­ter a 6-month romp, Arie Bellde­grun and David Chang fly a $100M-plus IPO for off-the-shelf CAR-T play­er Al­lo­gene

Back in ear­ly April, Arie Bellde­grun and David Chang were just get­ting start­ed when they rolled out news of a $300 mil­lion round for a start­up com­pa­ny called Al­lo­gene and their deal to take over Pfiz­er’s R&D group and pipeline fo­cused on de­vel­op­ing the world’s first off-the-shelf CAR-Ts.

An­oth­er $120 mil­lion flowed in just a few days ago.

Along the way, the crew found time to write an S-1 with $100 mil­lion pen­ciled in for the next raise, look­ing to take the fund­ing past a half bil­lion dol­lars in 6 months time.
