$BOLDPress releaseJun 23, 2026, 7:30 AM ETRead the release

Boundless Bio entered into a definitive agreement to merge with privately held Serapha Bio in an all-stock transaction, pivoting away from its failed ecDNA program BBI-940 to advance Serapha's in vivo base editing therapy SERP-01 for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency. The transaction is backed by a $230 million concurrent private placement co-led by RA Capital and RTW Investments; BOLD stockholders will receive a special cash dividend of approximately $44 to $48 million but will retain only about 3.7% ownership of the combined company.
