The latest update is out from Xlife Sciences Ltd. ( (CH:XLS) ).

VERAXA Biotech AG, a portfolio company of Zurich-based incubator Xlife Sciences AG, develops antibody-drug conjugates and other antibody-based cancer therapies built on scientific discoveries from EMBL, with the goal of rapidly advancing these candidates into and through clinical development. Xlife Sciences, listed on SIX, focuses on nurturing such platforms toward the capital markets, underscoring its strategy of turning early-stage life science innovation into investable companies.

Shareholders of VERAXA Biotech AG have approved by 99.57% the three-way absorption merger with Veraxa Biotech Holding AG and U.S.-listed Voyager Acquisition Corp., clearing the way for VERAXA to list on Nasdaq under the ticker “VRXA” once Voyager investors sign off on 12 March 2026. The current management led by CEO Dr. Christoph Antz will remain in place, and Xlife Sciences says the deal validates its model of guiding high-potential oncology platforms to global capital markets, potentially strengthening VERAXA’s funding base and international profile.
