- Hadasit Bio-Holdings Ltd. (HBL) is a publicly traded biotechnology investment company that provides funding and support to early-stage pharmaceutical firms originating from intellectual property developed at Hadassah University Medical Center in Israel. Founded in 2005 and headquartered in Jerusalem, the company operates as a subsidiary of Hadasit Ltd., the technology transfer arm of Hadassah Medical Organization, with shares listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (TASE: HDST) and OTC markets (HSITF); it focuses on pre-clinical and early clinical-stage biotech ventures in oncology, ophthalmology, inflammatory diseases, and regenerative medicine. HBL's core portfolio includes stakes in KAHR Medical, which develops multifunctional immuno-recruitment protein (MIRP) therapies for immuno-oncology to unmask cancer cells and recruit immune responses; Enlivex Therapeutics (NASDAQ: ENLV), advancing off-the-shelf macrophage reprogramming cell therapies like Allocetra for solid cancers, sepsis, and acute inflammatory conditions; and CellCure Neurosciences (a Lineage Cell Therapeutics subsidiary), specializing in human embryonic stem cell-derived OpRegen RPE cell therapy for dry age-related macular degeneration and other ocular disorders, which entered an exclusive worldwide collaboration with Roche/Genentech in December 2021 for development and commercialization. The company targets high-potential blockbuster drugs by distributing investment risk across its portfolio, primarily serving global pharmaceutical markets through minority to partial ownership positions. Recent developments include ongoing portfolio advancements such as Enlivex's multicenter Phase I/II trial approvals for Allocetra and KAHR's prior $46.5 million financing in 2021 to expand its immunotherapeutic pipeline, alongside Hadasit parent-level partnerships like the July 2025 alliance with TechsoMed for AI-driven cancer image-guided therapies and June 2024 collaboration with Pangea Biomed and Ultima Genomics for solid tumor treatments at Hadassah's Sharett Cancer Institute.
