Oncolytics Biotech Inc. (ONCY)

[Noodle2]

Last year Celgene "[backed] next-gen oncolytic virus startup," Oncorus, a privately held company. Currently, Celgene has entered into a "First-in-Class Collaboration," with Oncolytics. Very interesting.

From Oncorus' website:

"Celgene backs next-gen oncolytic virus startup in $57M Series A
"Newly unveiled Oncorus has raised a $57 million Series A to back its efforts to use next-gen oncolytic viruses to treat aggressive cancers including a type of brain cancer, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Active strategic investor Celgene ($CELG) participated in the financing, which was led by MPM Capital."
