Argos Therapeutics

Argos Therapeutics, incorporated in 1997 and operated under the name Merix Bioscience prior to late 2004, traces its roots to Duke University, where company founders developed a unique RNA-based vaccine technology. In 2000, we completed our initial round of venture financing and acquired from Duke an exclusive worldwide license to the technology. The following year, the company closed a second venture round and acquired from Rockefeller University and Dr. Gerold Schuler's exclusive worldwide rights to complementary technology relating to the generation of dendritic cells (DCs), setting the stage for our current therapeutic development.
