MENLO PARK, CA -- (Marketwired) -- 07/01/13 -- AntriaBio, Inc. (OTCQB: ANTB), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing therapies for the treatment of diabetes, announced today that as a result of expressions of interest from potential investors, it intends to raise up to $12 million as part of a private placement of common stock.
The proceeds from the private placement will be used for general operations including development of AB101, AntriaBio's lead product candidate. As part of its development program, the Company anticipates establishing a cGMP manufacturing facility in the Denver, Colorado area.
