Maze Ther­a­peu­tics re­fu­els with an­oth­er $190M to prove its ge­net­ic mod­i­fiers ap­proach holds up in the clin­ic

Ja­son Colo­ma re­mem­bers when Maze Ther­a­peu­tics was noth­ing more than a bunch of Pow­er­Point slides. Sev­er­al months af­ter re­veal­ing ex­act­ly what his team of sci­en­tists have been up to, the chief ex­ec­u­tive is now gun­ning for the clin­ic with an­oth­er $190 mil­lion in tow — and he says an IPO isn’t en­tire­ly out of the ques­tion.

“I mean, the good thing is with the fi­nan­cial flex­i­bil­i­ty that we now have, we’ve done a nice job,” Colo­ma said when asked about a pub­lic de­but. “We’ll look at dif­fer­ent op­tions, but I think that would even in­clude even stay­ing pri­vate or look­ing at dif­fer­ent busi­ness de­vel­op­ment trans­ac­tions that might be help­ful for us to kind of think of dif­fer­ent ways to ad­vance our pipeline.”
