Plus deals involving Abeona/Beacon, TuHura/Kintara, Crosswalk/Codexis, Lantheus/Life Molecular Imaging as well as tech transfer agreements and small deals involving Pfizer, Sanofi and Ipsen.

Deal Snapshot: Ipsen has entered into a global licensing agreement with Foreseen Biotechnology potentially worth up to $1.03bn, its second antibody-drug conjugate tie-up this year, a few months after unveiling a partnership with Sutro.

Sutro Biopharma CEO Bill Newell spoke with Scrip about the company’s novel platform, its goal of improving folate receptor alpha-driven ovarian cancer and its business development strategy.

The France-based mid-sized drugmaker has solidified its pipeline through several external pacts in the past few years and its dealmaking is showing no signs of slowing down.
