Genmab Partners With Immatics To Discover and Develop Next-Generation Immunotherapies

Michelle Liu

Abstract


Seeking to develop new bispecific immunotherapies, Genmab has gained exclusive access to multiple proprietary targets from Immatics Biotechnologies (Immatics), identified by the latter’s Xpresident® and T cell receptor technology. The collaboration will combine both companies’ technology and expertise in a deal worth up to US$1.7 B as well as tiered royalties on sales.
