About Us

ARTBIO is re-defining cancer care by developing a new class of radioligand therapies (RLT) which harness the power of 212Pb and deliver it directly to the tumour. Targeted RLT is one of the fastest growing areas of oncology research and investment. The foundational technology, termed AlphaDirect, was born out of elegant research by our scientific founders, Roy Larsen and Øyvind Bruland, inventors of XofigoTM. ARTBIO is leveraging this groundbreaking science and expediting novel Drug Discovery targets which broadly exploit the unmet medical need and opportunity in revolutionising cancer care. Supported by a committed investment board including Omega Funds, F-Prime Capital, Radforsk and Third Rock Ventures, ARTBIO has built a highly experienced, multi-disciplinary team of drug-hunters and developers. For more information on our strategy and emerging pipeline, please visit www.artbio.com and follow-us on LinkedIn.

As an emerging, global biotech with locations in Boston, Massachusetts, Basel, Switzerland, London, England and Oslo, Norway, we take advantage of diverse scientific depth and insights which makes ARTBIO a unique place to work. We are driven by a desire to do better for cancer patients, lowering the burden of toleration and safety while at the same time raising the bar on clinical efficacy and duration.
