Xlife Sciences AG (XLS): 2020 Financial Results
In 2020, Xlife Sciences AG (XLS) significantly increased its profit to 21.2 million Swiss francs compared to the previous year (1.03 million). The increase is based on the transaction and the capital appreciation of the portfolio companies Velabs Therapeutics and Araxa Biosciences. For the current year, the management expects again a significant increase in profits. For 2021, two exits and an IPO are planned for 2022.
Xlife Sciences AG looks back on a very successful 2020. With a lean cost structure of approximately 3.2 million Swiss Francs (2020: 1.5 million) as a result of the transaction and capital appreciation of Velabs and Araxa with a net profit of 21.2 million Swiss Francs. This is a very good financial result, which reflects the intrinsic value and the potential of our project portfolio, says Oliver R. Baumann, CEO of Xlife. The capital appreciation of our projects is based on external studies conducted by the consulting firm EY, following the exit in December 2020. On a positive note, Baumann also adds that at least four portfolio projects will generate revenue this year. Taking the early phase into account, this is a considerable result.
Due to the promising development of the projects, the management expects a significantly higher profit for 2021 as well. Two exit transactions are still planned for the current year. In addition, Veraxa Biotech AG will be listed on the stock exchange in 2022 at the latest. For 2022, Xlife confirms a profit target of around 60 million Swiss francs.

Study Suggests Critical Link Between Residual FLT3 -ITD Mutations in Remission and Post-Transplant Outcomes in AML8.5.2024 16:00:00 CEST | Press release
A groundbreaking research study,1 sequencing DNA samples from the Pre-MEASURE study2 strongly indicates that the detection of residual FLT3 internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutations in the blood of adult subjects with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR) is associated with worse outcomes after post allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). This follow-up study performed measurable residual disease (MRD) testing on DNA of 537 subjects with FLT3-ITD AML from the Pre-MEASURE study using Invivoscribe’s RUO FLT3 ITD MRD Assay kit and bioinformatics software. Its findings underscore the likely significance of residual FLT3-ITD in first CR in predicting relapse and mortality post-transplant. A key finding from this research study was that AML subjects with residual FLT3-ITD detected prior to allogeneic HCT trended towards elevated risk of relapse and mortality post-transplant, with a dose-dependent correlation within this study population.
