NEW YORK, Sept. 13 (GenomeWeb News) - ChondroGene of Toronto has raised $500,000 in a private placement in Canada, bringing the total of this financing round to $5.5 million, the company said today.

 

Last month, ChondroGene raised $5 million in a private placement in the US under the same terms, $.95 per common share.

 

The funding will provide the company with operating capital into 2006. ChondroGene, which develops disease-specific biomarkers, plans to advance its technology into areas outside of osteoarthritis, such as cancer and neurological disorders.
