Genmab køber ProfoundBio for $1.8 Mia til at udvide deres onkologi portefølje

ADC - antistof-lægemiddelkonjugater - Genmab - onkologi - ProfoundBio

Læs om Genmabs milliardopkøb af ProfoundBio og deres planer om at styrke deres behandlinger mod kræft.

Genmab, det danske lægemiddelfirma, har annonceret en storslået handel med den amerikanske bioteknologifirma ProfoundBio til en værdi af $1.8 milliarder. Opkøbet sigter mod at udvide Genmabs onkologi portefølje og bringe dem i konkurrence med AbbVie's Elahere. Genmab styrker deres position inden for kræftbehandling ved at erhverve ProfoundBio, hvilket giver dem globale rettigheder til en række næste generations antistof-lægemiddelkonjugater.*

Genmab, der er bedst kendt for at udvikle og markedsføre lægemidler i samarbejde med partnere, øger nu deres arsenal af antistof-lægemiddelkonjugater gennem købet af ProfoundBio. Seattle-baserede ProfoundBio fokuserer på udvikling af ADC'er, som sender giftige kemikalier direkte til kræftcellers mål, hvilket begrænser skaderne på sunde celler. Denne strategi viser Genmabs vilje til at være en toneangivende spiller inden for kræftbehandling.*

Genmabs CEO udtalte, at dette opkøb markerer virksomhedens første erhvervelse nogensinde og demonstrerer deres kontinuerlige engagement i kampen mod kræft. Genmabs ekstraordinære track record med 44 IND'er og 8 markedsførte lægemidler understreger deres ekspertise inden for brancheinnovation.*

I kølvandet på denne milliardhandel styrker Genmab deres position på det onkologiske marked med nye ADC-løsninger, hvilket potentielt kan føre til banebrydende behandlinger for kræftpatienter. Dette opkøb viser Genmabs engagement i at transformere kræftbehandlingen og positionere sig som en global leder inden for onkologi.*
