Since 2005, he is also active as a private investor in the biotech arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides his general management activities within Matisse, Kees has been focusing mainly on the further development of the lead compound M6229.

Matisse’s platform technology is based on the discovery that in many patients suffering from sepsis, proteins called histones are released by the innate immune system and apoptotic and necrotic cells into the blood stream, where they are toxic to other cells. Due to this self-enforcing cascade, people may die from organ failure within one or two days. Preclinical results have shown that by neutralizing the toxic histones with Matisse’s product M6229, the negative cascade is inhibited by neutralization of cationic histones by anionic M6229. Currently, there is no effective treatment against sepsis. According to the WHO, sepsis is the leading cause of death. From the 49 million patients globally suffering from sepsis every year, more than 20% die. According to a recent J. Crit .Care Med. study, sepsis is the most common cause of in-hospital deaths, costing over $62 billion annually in the USA alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\u003Cstrong>About Matisse Pharmaceuticals\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Matisse Pharmaceuticals BV was founded in 2014 in Geleen, the Netherlands. Matisse targets life-threatening inflammation by neutralizing cytotoxic components of the inflammatory system.
