Synopsis

Edit

Takeda, a Japanese multinational pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical company, agreed to acquire Maverick Therapeutics, a private biopharmaceutical company pioneering conditionally active bispecific T-cell targeted immunotherapies, for $525m. "Takeda’s exercise of their purchase option is a tribute to the Maverick team’s singular focus on improving outcomes for patients with solid tumor cancers. Through the acquisition, patients will benefit from the expansion of resources and experience Takeda brings to accelerate development of our COBRA-derived therapies. Takeda has been an excellent partner since Maverick’s inception, venerating our independence through a period marked by rapid innovation, providing actionable consultation, and providing direct cell line development and manufacturing support through the Covid-19 pandemic to keep us on our aggressive schedule," James Scibetta, Maverick Therapeutics CEO.
